ALL RIGHT

Hello again and welcome back to the Daily Vitamin. I hope you are doing well.

Today we are going to examine another expression that is often used in spoken English.

Today's expression is: all right

It is used: for getting someone's attention when you want to start talking about or doing something new.

All right has other meanings and uses (for example, to agree, to admit, etc.) but these are topics for future Daily Vitamins!

Example 1 [At a dinner party]: 
Host: All right. Who would like red wine and who would prefer white?

Example 2:
Receptionist: All right, can everybody listen to me for a moment, please? You need to take a number from that machine over there. Then, wait for your number to be called.

You may also see all right written as alright.

To get some writing practice in English, I invite you to write your own sentence with today's expression. You can post your sentence to one of our social media sites (Facebook or Bluesky) and we will give you feedback about your writing ASAP.

Have a nice day!
